Placing the Handset into the Base Station

and Charging the Batteries

Before using your handset, place it in the base sta-
tion with the display facing upward. After about one
minute, the handset's internal number is shown in
upper left hand corner of display (for example, “1”).
Note:
Your Gigaset is now ready for operation. Please set
date and the time (see page 11), so that the time of
incoming calls can be noted correctly.
• Use only “AA” rechargeable NiCd or NiMH
batteries. Do not use Alkaline, Lithium or
non-rechargeable batteries.
• Never use non-Siemens charging units as
these could damage the batteries and
phone.
For information on how to register additional
handsets (bought separately), see page 27.
